    2weeks post op on solids and not losing

    Thanks stephaine for your motivating words. This is a Journey and it is not always going to be easy I have to remember that. I am trying to stay positive. Don't have a dog but I can definetly crank up excercising. Have I-pod, active 7yr old daughter so we can walk around the school track for 30mins and I can do my biggest loser cardio tape and that is another 30mins/6days a week. I will check back in a week hopefully with some better results.

  13. Hi Banded 4/17 and it feels great to be on the other side
  14. Hi all I have a question regarding foods and calorie intake I am on mushy/ solid food and I have noticed that it is quiet common to gain a few pounds back during this stage but I want to know what should I eat and what are the key factors in making sure I don't gain too much weight back during this time. I am starting to feel hungry and I am concerned that I am not getting the recommended amount of Protein? Please help thanks

    One week Post op and questions

    Thanks Beth I really appericiate your kind gesture. Today was my first day back at work and I was so tired, had a bad headache and hungry the oatmeal, soup wasn't cutting it so I am going to have light yogurt maybe some tuna fish and veggies and try and make a protein shake as well. I was feeling horriable today so hopefully better tommorrow. I am also working on water intake so far I am able to get 40oz of water not including other drinks.

    8 hrs until surgery time!!!!

    Yes, he is. If you are not staying overnight no need to pack much. You are going to be sore and groggy. I only had the clothes on my back, meds, insurance card and that was it. I did not stay overnight though good luck

    One week Post op

    Hi Everyone I am one week post op pretty much feeling back to normal. I have some occasional pain on my port site but I am feeling good otherwise. I am on mushy/solids stage and I am craving real food. I am back to work next week. I have started to work out slowly and I am hoping by next week I can really get back into gym. Curious to know how all the other Bunnies are doing?? Take care. 8lbs lost not much but I am fine with that for one week. I want the weight to come off graudually cause I am really scared of lose skin.

    April Bandsters?

    I had the option of staying overnight and decided to come home. My honey took the weekend off and he took great care of me. There is no place like home. My Bed was uncomfortable at first but I got used to it. I wanted to do everything normally so I would know what to expect.
